What was it like for you
I can tell you in truth what it was like for me
to be….
16 in July, 16 in July
With license in my hand, and freedom on my mind
I was….
16 in July, 16 in July
With summer to my left, and no one to my right
What did you want to hear,
on your radio ooooo ooo
even if it did not come in clear
You’d still be….
16 in July, 16 in July
With license in your hand,
and freedom on your mind.
If you’re…
16 in July, 16 in July
With summer to your left,
and no one to your right.
For me it was shortcut road
the girl was new, and the car was old
Were you in love like me
Or at least as in love as you can be
When you’re…
16 in July, 16 in July
With license in your hand,
and freedom on your mind.
I was…
16 in July, 16 in July
With summer to my left, and no one to my right
